G3 INSIGHT - QUIXANT


Te US has certainly rebounded strongly, but I’ve also been surprised by European customers and their demands. Our customers have continued to purchase products even when their locations have been closed. If you look at venues in the UK, for example, a lot of venues experienced a strong appetite from players to return to physical gambling. Venues faced a binary choice - sit tight with their present offer and potentially lose players to different channels, different venues - or go all-in and upgrade their sites. And the winner has been investment.

We have a new high- end product based on the Intel Tiger-Lake architecture and we’re seeing strong demand, especially as it represents an easy upgrade path with great performance driving the latest games with high resolution graphics.


What we didn’t do was overhaul our product roadmap as a result of COVID. It's a fact that some of our product launches have had less fanfare, but we are a 16-year-old business that plans for the future and our roadmap doesn’t change because of one year. Instead, we have adapted the roadmap to reflect the circumstances at any given time.


We have sought to underpin the supply chain to make sure our products are available, and
